I play SWAT now and then, but I'm really rusty at it. It was about the only thing I played in Halo 2 back in the original X-box Live era. Even up until Bungie and MS shut down the servers.
I haven't grokked how to play it with mouse-keyboard on the PC version since it seems like it's "spawn, get shot, spawn, get shot, spawn, get shot" without actually moving/doing anything.
Then again, that was Reach and Reach's spawn system was pretty ass. I guess I should try 2's... when they fix the lag/register.
I don't give a shit about the MLG-try-hard 4v4 comp mode. It's not what the series is best at (IMO), though there is/was an eSport scene for Halo back in the day so some folks might be into that. But I prefer having larger teams (to support/ping folks for others to kill.
) while having an objective to focus on.
CE's BTB was busted, so I dunno how that plays (so I played a lot of 4v4 hence that dominating Chill Out round) but I played 2 and 3 BTB nearly exclusively.
I guess I need to up my game and play some Hardcore/no radar to play the mode you want to play.
